I wondered about the exact same change this morning, while researching
the IORING_SETUP_ATTACH_WQ behavior :-)

It still seems to me that IORING_SETUP_ATTACH_WQ changed over time.
As you introduced that flag, can you summaries it's behavior (and changes)
over time (over the releases).

I'm wondering if ctx->sq_creds is really the only thing we need to take care of.

Do we know about existing users of IORING_SETUP_ATTACH_WQ and their use case?
As mm, files and other things may differ now between sqe producer and the sq_thread.
